USEFUL ACCESSORIES

SOME TIPS ON OPENERS AND RAILS

If you want the quietest operation, go with a belt-drive opener like the model 8155 or 8355.

If you need to open the door during a power failure, choose a model like the 8550 (belt drive) or 8360 (chain drive)

If budget is most important, choose the 8165 or 8365 chain-drive models.

If warranty coverage is most important, choose the 8500, 8587, or 8550 - all with lifetime motor, 5 year parts and one year battery/accessory warranties.

The rails included with our openers are solid commercial-grade one-piece.

However if you buy the same opener through an outlet like Home Depot, it will come in several sections, which you have to assemble yourself, creating a weaker unit that is noisier, vibrates more, and is prone to failure.
